Entries Due Feb 18^th 2010

Exhibit opens at the 930 Art Center in Louisville, KY on February 26, 2010.

“Like apples of gold in settings of silver, is a word spoken in right circumstances.”

ACTION: Pick a single proverb from the book of Proverbs and illustrate it.

The biblical book ‘Proverbs’ is not only a collection of sayings and observations for wise living, but it is rich in powerful visual language.  Proverbs offers moving insights that confirm our own observations about the world and call us to clearer vision and action as well.

Sojourn Visual Arts is inviting individual artists, classes, and churches around the country to explore the rich wisdom of the proverbs and respond by making images. Sojourn Visual Arts will be displaying 300 selected entries in an exhibit on the Psalms and Proverbs at the 930 Art Center, a gallery owned by Sojourn Church.  The entries will be displayed together in the gallery to demonstrate the diversity of topics in proverbs and the diversity of responses to its wisdom.  Every entry submitted will be displayed on our website.

Any 2-dimensional method of image making is acceptable.  Everyone will work on the same 4x5” mat boards that we will be happy to send to you in the mail with detailed instructions.  There is no cost to participate and you can contact Sojourn Visual Arts to have mat boards and info sent to you directly.

To request a project packet, email mwinters@sojournchurch.com and just let us know how many blank project panels you would like.

All work must be at the 930 Art Center by Feb 18th to be considered for inclusion in the exhibit.
